Image Is ...


Andre Agassi will forever be the tennis icon who shone his beauty at an advertiser's (Canon) camera to offer, "Image is Everything." But he also proves that one image is not everything.

Today's look at eBay finds an auction with an image from 1974 of father and son farmers. Some may still think of their food growers that way, however times do change. The iconic generational soil workers are few and very far between.

Similarly, the Agassi of yesteryear is now a father of two and while image may still be important for Agassi, his work for charity, his charter school for the less well-off in his Las Vegas hometown and his devotion to his wife and children is something else.


** Every father was once a son. **
